Here's How Rush Limbaugh Opened His Show Today

Conservative radio talk show host Rush Limbaugh has been an ardent supporter of Donald Trump since the May Primaries and was impressed with his campaign from the start. Now in the wake of victory, here is how Rush opened his show today:

"Man, there is so much to say. There are so many vibrantly great feelings to share. We have not lost our country. It might even be fair to say we really weren't even that — well, we are close, we're close. But we have not lost the country. We learned also that it was not necessary to go through these past eight years. I don't want to rewrite history, but my point here is that the Democrats can be beat if they are approached in the right way.

"One of the problems that we have had to endure as voters and as citizens is that our party has not believed that. Our party has not believed the Democrats can be beat, and Donald Trump has shown how to do it. It took a political outsider, somebody with no fingerprints on anything to do with the way Washington works, quote, unquote, demonstrates how you beat an opposing political party."

Later he added, "We have been validated. The things that we feel and think about our country, the direction it was going, we have been validated by virtue of what the American people did yesterday."
